Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Gospel of Luke is the New Testament's richest portrait of Jesus. But how do you teach it to your kids?The longest of the four Gospels, Luke is the one most people know in pieces: the Christmas story, the good Samaritan, the prodigal son. But read those famous stories in isolation and you miss the thread that connects them. Luke isn't retelling what Matthew and Mark already covered. He's telling the story from a different angle, putting the spotlight on the people everyone else overlooks: the poor, the outsiders, the women, and the forgotten.And that changes everything. Luke shows us a God who turns the world's value system upside down. Shepherds get the birth announcement instead of kings. A hated Samaritan becomes the hero. A criminal on a cross hears, "Today you will be with me in paradise." From manger to empty tomb, this is the story of a Jesus who came to seek and save the lost.What Is the Gospel of Luke? makes this sweeping Gospel accessible for today's young readers. Written in a warm, conversational style that doesn't water down the theology or talk down to kids, this guide walks through all twenty-four chapters with:Engaging illustrations from pop culture-from classic films to beloved novels-that connect biblical themes to stories kids already knowHonest engagement with Luke's big ideas-including the great reversal and what it means that Jesus came for the people nobody expectedReal-life application-helping kids see how Luke's themes of mercy and radical welcome speak to their own struggles with belonging and faithWhether your child feels like an outsider looking in, is wrestling with what it means to follow Jesus, or is ready to explore the Bible's most detailed account of his life, What Is the Gospel of Luke? will show them that the God who noticed shepherds and climbed a tree to find a tax collector still sees every person the world passes by.Perfect for family reading, church classes, or independent study.
